Brody Mitchum is the quarterback of the Union Wells High School Wildcats football team. Smooth-talking and friendly, Brody seems like a great guy to Claire ... right up until he attempts to rape her and leaves her for dead after a post-game bonfire.

Claire later discovers from Lori Tremmel that she was not the first victim of Brody's predatory assaults, prompting her to seek revenge by crashing Brody's car headlong into a brick wall--with Brody in it.

Brody survives the accident but is badly injured. While at the hospital Mr. Bennet confronts Brody about his attempted rape. Instead of killing Brody, Mr. Bennet has his associate erase his mind completely. When Claire tries to talk to him subsequently he claims he doesn't know who she is or why she keeps calling him Brody.
